The New York State Seal of Biliteracy (NYSSB) was established to recognize high school graduates who have attained a high level of proficiency in listening, speaking, reading, and writing in one or more languages, in addition to English. By providing this opportunity, the East Ramapo Central School District affirms the value of diversity in a multilingual society and encourages the study of languages.
Benefits of receiving a Seal of Biliteracy:
1) Obtain evidence of language and biliteracy skills for employers.
2) Provide universities with additional information about your language proficiency.
3) Prepare you with twenty-first century skills to be successful in college and careers.
